The Dragon Gold Privy Marki Coin is a prestigious collectable crafted from 1 kilo of 99.99% pure silver and featuring a 1-gram gold privy insert. This flawlessly struck coin is a rare release.
The unique tribute to the legendary lunar calendar portrays the fifth animal in the Chinese lunar calendar in vivid colour and enshrines the character for ‘DRAGON’ in pure gold.
The dragon commands the highest respect in Chinese culture. For thousands of years, it was associated with the emperor and his descendants, symbolising wisdom, enlightenment, and benevolence. The dragon was also said to command water and rain, and by ensuring abundant harvests became a powerful symbol of wealth and good fortune.
Those born under the sign of the Chinese Lunar Dragon in 2024, 2012, 2000, 1988, 1976 and every 12th preceding year, are said to be ambitious, successful, and charismatic.
The coin’s reverse portrays a coloured dragon with water cascading from its mouth, stylised waves, and a flaming pearl, a symbol of wisdom. Also included in the design is a 1-gram pure gold privy insert portraying the Chinese character for ‘dragon’, the inscription ‘DRAGON 2024’, and a ‘P125’ mintmark signifying The Perth Mint’s 125th anniversary.
The Dragon Gold Privy Mark coin is housed in a classic display case with a clear lid decorated with a silver geometric design. The case is packaged in a beautifully illustrated shipper portraying the story of how the dragon became the fifth animal of the Chinese lunar calendar and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
